Yes, it has, but there's nothing you one do. You can't stop people from saying what they want to say, or thinking what they want to think. "Autistic" is the new "ret*d", as far as some are concerned. It's very unfortunate.

"yo momma's so autisic that..." I can see that catching on actually. Whether it will be funny or unfortunate I have yet to find out.

No time like the present.

Yo momma is so autistic, she needs to be shot with tranqs before you can shake her hand.

Yo momma is so autistic, when I told her to go f**k herself... she actually did.

Yo momma is so autistic, even WoW players think she's a freak.

Not great, but I haven't had much time. Or motivation.
